You know how it is when you travel to another country you get to the airport to go home & have a handful of money that you don't want to bother to exchange so, you end up spending it in the airport shops. Waiting to come home from England, we used our few leftover pounds to buy a bunch of chocolate & a copy of Jamie Oliver's magazine Jamie. It's a really pretty magazine, the art direction looks a lot like his recent books, but even better it seems to be full of recipes we want to try. This is the first of those recipes.This soup seemed like the perfect quick thing to make on our first night back home when we knew we wouldn't be up for much else. It had a really wonderful flavor but oh, was it rich! We really needed the crusty bread we served it with. I don't think we'd make it as a main dish again but it would make a great starter or side with beef.
